Unlimited Usage Policy
We give you an extra free 50GB of space for backups, with extra at only 10 cents a GB / month. (The rest of your disk space may only be used by files needed for your websites directly.) No other "unlimited" host allows using any of your disk space for backups, at all!
What do you mean "Unlimited"?
We mean, you don't have to worry about disk storage or network transfer when your site gets popular.
You DO still have to worry about plenty of other things though... if your site isn't well optimized and is causing issues for others on your shared server (either because it's pounding the CPU, hogging RAM, or doing tons of disk I/O), you may be asked to sign up for your own Private Server.
Every host has exactly the same limitations.. we're just going to be up front about limitations!
What about databases?
You're allowed an unlimited number of MySQL databases. In the interest of server stability we ask that you keep them optimized and no larger than a few GB in size.
What's not allowed in "Unlimited"?
Sites whose essential purpose is to use disk or bandwidth.
When making your website, you will be thinking about "How can I make an interesting site for my visitors while minimizing my server storage, bandwidth, file system, memory, and cpu impact as much as possible?"
The result will be a better experience for your visitors, your web host, and yourself!
Here are some specific examples of things not allowed:
- Copyrighted content you are not the copyright holder of.
- File upload / sharing / archive / backup / mirroring / distribution sites.
- A site created primarily to drive traffic to another site.
- Making your account resources available (whether for free or pay) to the general public.
Hey, that doesn't sound very "Unlimited" to me!
Actually, for you, my dear Legitimate Website Owner, it is unlimited.
This whole page is just to announce to the <.1% of people who want to try and run free porn affiliate sites or anime video trading forums or host pirated rips of The Dark Knight that we're not having any.
But our pledge to you is to do our best to always keep your website, with the content you created, UP... no matter how many times you get slashdotted, dugg, or win any exciting webdesign competitions.
